·The backguard must be attached before sliding the range into the final, installed position. A Low Back or Pot-and-Pan Shelf must be installed when there is less than 12” clearance from a combustible back wall and the back of the range above the cooking surface. SEE RANGE INSTALLATION MANUAL.

·An Island Trim is available for covering the backguard area of the range for island installations; however, the Island Trim can only be used where there is a minimum of 12” horizontal clearance between a combustible back wall and the back of the range.

·The backguard is inserted inside the guide channels on the back of the range, as shown in the illustration. (Remove the griddle or grill assembly for sufficient installation clearance on GE or GL model ranges.) Using a T-20 size Torx driver, fasten the backguard with four Torx-head (4) screws to the range side panels.

·The Pot-and-Pan Shelf models require pre-assembly of the top panel to the shell using nine (9) of the enclosed Torx-head screws. For sufficient load strength, YOU MUST attach two (2) screws through the back corners of the top down into the shell.

·Use (3) Torx head screws to install the guard strip on the back of the range, as shown in the illustration. The center of the strip may be supported by a tab from the back panel, and not require a screw.

·To secure the front of the back guard, install three

(3) of the Torx head screws through the lower front panel of the backguard, into the flange at the back of the range’s cooktop.
